Reading a PDF document

With any Syncplicity edition, you can view, annotate, and add bookmarks when you open a PDF document in the Syncplicity app, version 3.2.0 or later.

When you open a PDF document, the top of the screen has a toolbar with these icons (from left to right), close, edit (opens the edit toolbar), search, bookmark, and menu options.
